Premier League - Gossip Shop: Terry, Cole for sale

Eurosport - Sun, 08 Mar 19:56:00 2009

John Terry and Ashley Cole could both be shown the door by Chelsea in the summer after embarrassing themselves outside a London nightclub last week.

Ashley Cole and John Terry - 0

According to friends of Guus Hiddink, quoted in the Daily Star (Gossip Shop sources do not get any more authoritative), the pair have left their new manager fuming and he "just won't tolerate" the booze culture in English football.

All of which could smooth Terry's £20 million move to Manchester City, a club who single-handedly keep GS in business with their infinite suitcases of hard cash and lusting for anything with an eight-figure price tag.

As for Cole, GS is tipping the increasingly unpopular, adulterous full-back for a possible move into television. Can you think of a better vehicle for his "intellectual conversation" than a show like QI?

The bad news for Chelsea continues with the story that Werder Bremen midfielder Diego will "snub" the club in the summer and opt for a move to Juventus instead. The Brazilian is apparently excited about life in Italy and wants to win the Ballon d'Or in Turin. That's if you believe his dad.

Staying on the dads theme, we move to Arsenal's interest in Sporting Lisbon midfielder Miguel Veloso. Veloso's dad has hinted at a move away from Portugal for his son and Arsene Wenger - who loves them young and European - is licking his lips.

Meanwhile, Aston Villa are altruistically planning to end David Bentley's "Spurs hell" with a summer move for the £15m midfielder. According to the News of the World, Martin O'Neill is looking to bolster the depth of his squad and the former 'Next David Beckham' fits the bill.

Talking of Beckham, it seems his beloved AC Milan are toying with the idea of making £30m bids for Manchester United central defenders Nemanja Vidic and Jonny Evans. GS can't see the dark lord of Old Trafford taking kindly to that one.

Sir Alex Ferguson would much rather talk about Argentine midfielder Nicolas Bertolo, who is currently plying his trade for Atletico Banfield in South America. United are considering a £4m bid.

Finally, a mention for the GS staple that is Robinho. The mercurial Brazilian will stay at Manchester City next season if you believe The Mail on Sunday. Even if he does, you can be sure GS will devote approximately 32.5m column inches to the possibility he will go elsewhere - Brighton are apparently extremely interested.

  3. You people only know how to gossip about chelsea. When­ Rooney fights and beats people, when Gerrald fights,­ and others you say nothing, but when it is chelsea you­ say everything even very unimportant ones like this.­ Cole and Terry are not leaving Stamford whether you­ like it or not. Terry is the best defender in the world­ and we intend to keep him. You should mind your­ business and let chelsea rest. What is all these­ nonsense? Is chelsea the only club? Why do you always­ find every little fault with cole? Do you buy the­ drinks for him? You poor little frog.

    From Liziwe, on Sun 8 Mar 11:18PM

  15. Did I miss something here? I thought Hiddink was only a­ stop gap manager until the summer, or has he decided to­ stay on longer? If he's there for the long haul,­ then I can understand him sending a message to his­ squad that certain behaviour wont be tolerated and that­ no one player, no matter how good, is bigger than the­ club. Ferguson has shipped out players he felt were­ destabilising the squad, and if Hiddink feels­ similarly, then he should act accordingly. As to­ whether the players mentioned actually leave in the­ summer or not, we'll have to wait and see.
